To celebrate the victory of the Bahrain national team in the Gulf Cup competitions, Gulf Air hastened to offer discounts on airline tickets coming to Oman, and among the aforementioned destinations was Israel, so how did the tweeters receive that?
The “Shababat” program (12/1/2023) followed the story of these rivalries, which came after the Bahrain national team achieved an important victory over the Qatar national team, with two goals to one, in the second round of the second group competitions in the Gulf Cup held in the Iraqi city of Basra, and thus qualified for the semi-finals. .
Gulf Air published a tweet in which he said: "Celebrate the victory of our national team in the 25th Gulf Cup with a 15% discount on your next flight to Amman, Cairo, Tel Aviv, or Casablanca!"
The attention of the tweeters turned to the trip towards Tel Aviv, as the tweet received many responses, and the activist Tala Al-Ruwaila expressed her astonishment and wrote: “Oh, offers on trips to Israel, my eyes are your eyes ??? I personally had bad experiences with Gulf Air, but (but) with this (this) movement (it will be) the point that overflowed the cup.
On the other hand, tweeter Nadim Razi considered this step as an indication of coexistence between the two countries and wrote: "Awesome performances from victory to victory, God willing, and peace between Bahrain and Israel perpetuated. Yes to coexistence."
Activist Muhammad Lutfi commented, saying: "Winning a Gulf championship on Iraqi soil against a Gulf national team as well, and you put discounts and offers on trips to Israel? Who has this unsuccessful marketing idea?"
In answer to this question, it is mentioned that Gulf Air is not the first time to land in Tel Aviv, as the airline began launching two flights per week to Tel Aviv in 2021, which is a new route after political and commercial agreements related to civil aviation signed by Bahrain and Israel, and it made its first flight in September. 2021.
